INTERVENING WHITNEY.
The Secretary Does Not impart Any
Valuable News.

BAR HARBoR, Aug. 49,. Secretary Whit
ney in an interview today declined to make
any statement in regard to the report that
Rear Admiral Luce, commander-in-chief of
the North Atlantic Squadron, had sent in his
resignation of the command of the feet on
account of having received the departments
telegraphic order criticising the admiraIs
action.
Have you seen Admiral Luce's explana-
tion in regard to the alleged statement sup
posed to have been made by the admiral in
connection with your orders wherein the ad-
miral is quoted as using one of Shakes
peare's remarks?"
u have" said the secretary, 'and / also
saw the first report and read it, but never
gave it a second thought, as / knew right
away that the whole thing was manufac-
tured report. / know Admiral Luce too
well. 1t is absurd for anybody to believe
that Luce ever made use of such an express
sion in the manner as published in the pa
pers. Admiral Luce is too much of gen.
tleman and an officer to forget himself in
such manner"
'Is there any truth in the report that Ad-
miral Luce will be detached hers?"
TO this question the secretary paid no at
tentlon, but said that the admiral was one of
the smartest and most able naval officers of
the old school in the country. 81 have been
asked In Washington and New York numer-
GUS times to confirm or deny the report that
Admiral Luce had handed in his application
for detachment but / have always declined,
and therefore could not say anything now."
Are you going to call on board the flag
ship and other warships now in the har-
bor?"
81 think 7 shall"
Secretary Whitney expressed himself as
very sorry indeed that he didn't arrive day
sooner, as he'would have been very much
pleased to witness the naval parade.
Exercises of this kind are of great i'm
portance, and may be called actual service
indeed" said Mr.. Whitney.
What have the vessels been doing here?"
asked the secretary.
When the reporter informed him that they
had been practising some regular drills and
man9uvres with boats, etc., the secretary
expressed himself as pleased.
Mr.. Whitney, speaking of the beautiful
surroundings Of the pretty cottage where be
is stopping with Mrs. Whitney, said:
This is the first time / have been in Bar
Harbor. and think it is lovely place."
Rear Admiral Luce could not be seen at
the hotel where he is stopping. 1t was ex
pected that Secretary Whitney would meet
Admiral Luce today officially on board the

UNITED LABOR PARTY.
The Convention Declines to Affiliate
With the Union Men.

SYRACUSE, N. Y, Aug. 1s.-The blood
red symbol of Socialism shone significantly
at the gathering of the United Labor Party.
1t decorated the entire front of the large
platform and stage Of the Alhambra Rink as
well. 1t wanted an hour of the time of call
ing the George-M McGlynn gathering to order
when man rushed madly into the Empire
House and with emphasis declared that
mot id American flag" was to be seen
around the rink. He demanded to know the
reason why, and as nobody answered him
he solved his own problem by procurin two
small copies of the Star Spangled Banner
and giving them a place on the background
of red with which the walls were SO gor-
geously dressed.
The day was spent largely in discussing
the claims of contesting delegations. George
and McGlynn opposed admitting both dele
cations in the contested district, and their
wishes carried the day, the Socialistic depu-
tation being excluded.
The committee on permanent organization
reported John McMackin of New York, for
president. 0'Donnell was also nominated.
George and McGlynn supported McMackin
and he was elected, Ill to So.
The first hour in the evening session was
consumed by the election of vice chairman
and secretary. A proposition from the
Union Labor party that committees be
appointed looking to the appointment of
joint ticket by both parties, provided the
first five planks of the Cincinnati platform
be maintained, was promptly declined An
adjournment was taken until 10 o'clock to-
morrow.

THE UTE UPRISING.

Been Killed.

o. CHICAGO, Aug. 1S.-A local paper says:
Lieutenant William Wilson, also known as
Ute Bill is in the city. having come from
the scene Of the outbreak within q month.
He says that Colorow has only 40 fighting
bucks in his band, but every one of them is
well mounted and armed. Colorow himself
is 65 years old, but active and hardy. He is
intelligent, speaks English, and has been in
Denver and Georgetown. The old fellow is
wealthy for an Indian. His property con-
sists in horses. If he should make a sue
cessfu raid, his band would, perhaps, be
increased to 100 fighting men. 1t will hard
ly be necessary to send troops, for the rea-
son that there are enough cowboys and
ranches in the territory to protect them
selves and make it warm for the Utes
Lieht Wilson says there is danger that
tourists and hunting parties will be cut off
Rock Creek, Steamboats, Springs and other
places are favorite places with tourists and
hunting parties"

Sheriff Kendalps party at Meeker says it is
that Eeny, the son of Colorow, has been
killed. They say he was shot through the
head and fell from his horse The Utes
picked him up quickly and bore him away.
Ii this be true there is no doubt that Colo
row Will stop at nothing to avenge his sons
death. At Meeker there are 150 men who
will defend to the last the 400 women and
children who have sought refuge there The
adjutant general intends to force march a
company of militia to Meeker to aid the
settlers.
